Dynamic computed tomography as an ancillary screening test for traumatic thoracic aortic injuries: a critical review.

L D Britt1, R C Bono, W H Dascombe, L J Weireter.   

Abstract

While the divergence of opinion on the matter of diagnostic modalities will probably continue, dynamic computed tomography scans should be considered as a necessary study in assessing a possible traumatic thoracic aortic injury. The use of this modality will decrease the need for thoracic angiograms and invariably increase the yield.
